New York still tops Boston -- in sleazy pols

This likely falls into the small comfort department, but Gov. Deval Patrick and the Massachusetts Legislature smell like roses compared to the stench emanating out of Albany, NY.

Say what you will about Sal DiMasi, Dianne Wilkerson and Jim Marzilli, but none of them come close in word and deed compared to Hiram Monserrate, a Queen Democrat, er, Republican, er Democrat, who help engineer a coup in the New York Senate leadership.

His political standing should hold up as long as he avoids jail on charges he slashed a women with a drinking glass.

Absolutely, OL, Here we got the opera buffa of one person stuffing cash in their bra while another tries to slip his hands into someone else's bra.

And you are just describing the filth of the elected sector in Empire land.

Let no one ever EVER forget that the planetary economic crisis and the vaporization of trillions of dollars in 401k accounts originated in the utterly vile trading houses of Wall Street. They may need to rename it Ponzi City.
